The reason I can do what I do on stage is because I couldn't fake it.

I love the inappropriateness of age-old wisdom in modern slang. These things are all so wonderful to me.

Whether it's just the career path of doing independent music, being an artist, however you want to pigeon-hole it, it creates a certain type of character.

The reason I can do what I do on stage is because I couldn't fake it.

I MAY NOT BE MUCH ELSE IN THIS WORLD BUT I GUARANTEE YOU I AM GETTING INTO RAPPER HEAVEN.

What I remove from my writing is linear context. It's not really important to me, because it doesn't give me chills to see, "you flip the latch and the lock opens and then you can open the top of the chest and inside the chest is this." That doesn't give me chills, to think in that vein. So I've always kind of avoided it.

I'm not musically trained and I'm not all these other things. I'm creative with a keyboard and a drum machine, but I can't really make these perfect minimal musical executions - all the things that would be nice with all these refined poems.
